I do as it goes...
It was a 1970's Fender Jazz Bass body, a Warmoth Tele-Bass neck with birdseye maple neck and jet black ebony fingerboard, Schaller bridge and tuners and Schecter Monstertone Pickups. The pickups are impossible to find. It took me about 2 years of searching to track some down.
Karl was good enough to get in touch with Matt and he passed this all on to me, so kudos to both of them :)

Ebay searching. And lots of it.
Saying that, I got mine off a guy on a bass forum who took them out of a bass in 1996 and kept hold of them until last year when I messaged him and asked if he'd sell them. Luckily for me, he did. Keep looking, young padawan.
